Taking personal responsibility will transform your life. FULL STOP. It is the key to living an empowered life.

If you walk through this life believing that everything is happening TO you, you are living with a victim mentality.

The reality is, there are circumstances that are out of our control, but we ALWAYS have a choice in how we respond.

You can either sit back with an attitude of "this stuff always happens to me. I should just expect it.", relegating yourself to more of the same (victim mindset), OR you can choose a different thought. "That's not what I expected, but here's what I'm going to do next to make sure it doesn't happen again." You may not be responsible for what happened, but you are responsible for what happens next. This is living empowered.

Here are 3 questions to ask yourself today.

  1. Am I where I wanted to be in life?

  2. What has kept me from pursuing my goals?

  3. In what ways am I responsible for this outcome?

Asking yourself these questions, and giving brutally honest answers, will empower you to make different decisions going forward. You are actually in charge of your own life.
